      Steve D Not even Turner can help this one. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/22/24 Full Review Audience Member A young Lana Turner in love with her grandpa? This doesn't work at all. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Fresh from his SOUTH PACIFIC success on Broadway, MGM tried (and failed) to make a Hollywood star out of Ezio Pinza; Technicolor and Lana Turner attempted to help, but to no avail.
